The 10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX media converter series provides a media conversion allowing high-speed integration of fiber optic and twisted-pair segments. With 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX support, the converters provide seamless translation between Ethernet and Fast Ethernet networks.Because of 802.3af compliance, the converters can draw the power via Cat.5 cable connected to a PoE PSE switch or mis-span injector in addi-tion to being powered by typical external power adapter,. This feature makes the converter ideal for remote areas of a network without AC power outlets.
